Unveiling molecular clues: Exploring IFNγ, IL-10, and MMP7 blood levels in gastric carcinoma patients.
Article in Turkish journal of surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objectives: Gastric carcinoma is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Early detection can help reduce mortality rates. Biomarkers are being investigated globally for their potential in disease screening, monitoring, and follow-up in various cancers. However, currently, there is insufficient data on the role of biomarkers in gastric carcinoma. Material and Methods: This single center case control study was conducted from June 2018 to March 2021 from South India. Blood samples were collected from 85 patients diagnosed with gastric carcinoma and 85 apparently healthy individuals serving as the control group. The samples were collected in a fasting state. The serum levels of biomarkers interferon gamma (IFNγ), interleukin 10 (IL-10), and matrix metalloproteinase 7 (MMP7) were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and compared between the two groups. Additionally, the levels of biomarkers were compared within the gastric cancer group based on disease location, stage, and histotype. Results: The serum levels of IFNγ and IL-10 were found to be significantly elevated in gastric carcinoma patients compared to the healthy control group. Both biomarkers exhibited high sensitivity and specificity in detecting carcinoma of the stomach. However, there was no significant difference in the serum level of MMP7 between gastric cancer patients and control group. Conclusion: IFNγ and IL-10 show promise as potential molecular biomarkers for the detection of gastric carcinoma. Further, well designed studies, involving larger and more diverse populations matched for stage and histological types, are necessary to establish the screening and monitoring utility of these biomarkers in gastric carcinoma.
